A glove with optimized safety markings designed to improve worker safety in hazardous environments by increasing the visibility of the glove in the work environment and more easily distinguishing between the front and back of the glove. A preferred embodiment has fluorescent yellow hazard stripes, fluorescent yellow triangular safety icon and black negative space within the safety icon, all on protective members. The protective members, black in color except for the fluorescent yellow portions, are attached to the glove back.

A half mitten apparatus to safely demonstrate motorist hands during a traffic stop includes a first half-mitten, a second half-mitten, and a flexible connector. The first half-mitten and the second half-mitten each comprises a visually accentuating outer layer, an inner layer, a finger receiving receptacle, and an eyelet. The visually accentuating outer layer is externally connected about the inner layer that delineates the finger receiving receptacle. The eyelet traverses through the visually accentuating outer layer and the inner layer, adjacent to an opened end of the finger receiving receptacle. The eyelet of the first half-mitten and the eyelet of the second half-mitten are tethered into each other by the flexible connector as the flexible connector fastens both the first half-mitten and the second half-mitten within the close proximity of each other.

The present disclosure provides a dental mask having an anti-flow and fogging function which has a nose ridge contact cover attached to the upper portion of the inside of a mask body, thereby being maintained at a normal wearing state without moving out of the ridge of the nose because it does not slip down even if a user talks or yawns with the mask on, thereby preventing glasses from being fogged by exhalation, and thereby keeping both sides of the mask body in close contact with the cheeks of the wearer without coming off from the cheeks.

A mouth-nose mask for reducing the transmission of pathogens via droplets of secretion is disclosed. The mouth-nose mask includes a central fold which defines a chin-nose line of the mouth-nose mask and separates the mouth-nose mask into two substantially congruent halves. A fastening means for fastening the mouth-nose mask to a wearer's ears or back of the head is attached to the ends of the two halves remote from the central fold. The mouth-nose mask includes at least two superposed layers of a filter material, the at least two layers defining the outer shape of the mouth-nose mask and being only partially joined to one another at their edges.

A smart patch including multi-component strands integrated into clothing or other textiles where the strands of the smart patch include sensory elements that can simultaneously measure tactile forces, moisture/wetness, and other signals, such as biopotentials. A sensing system comprising: a first set of strands including a plurality of first multi-component strands, each of the first multi-component strands including a conductive portion and a non-conductive portion; and a second set of strands including a plurality of second multi-component strands, each of the second multicomponent strands including a conductive portion and a non-conductive portion, and a plurality of third multi-component strands, each of the third multicomponent strands including a conductive portion and a non-conductive portion, the third multi-component strands being different than the first multi-component strands and the second multi-component strands.

A coated woven fabric including an impregnated woven structure having a woven structure of plain or twill woven yarns of twisted aramid fibers, wherein the impregnated woven structure is impregnated with an organofluorine compound and the fibers have a linear density of 350 to 1000 dtex and a coating layer provided on at least one side of the impregnated woven structure.

Aspects herein provide for a support garment having a vibration damping structure that is positioned between the breast contacting surfaces of the support garment. The vibration damping structure has a shape and/or material characteristics that enable it to substantially fill the space defined by a medial aspect of the wearer's breasts and the wearer's sternum. This positioning and placement facilitate the damping structure's ability to absorb and dissipate impact forces generated at least through the medial-to-lateral movement of the wearer's breasts during, for example, athletic activities.

The present invention protects users from infectious agents, such as viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens. The present invention discloses a device that provides superior protection and comfort for use over prolonged periods of time. This invention is particularly suited for health care workers, individuals who interact with many people, or individuals who are at a high risk of infection. In one embodiment of the present invention, a face shield is disclosed that creates a full seal around the user's face, thereby protecting the user's otherwise exposed mucus membranes from droplets that may contain infectious agents.

Provided in an aspect of the present invention is a transparent laminate (10) including a functional layer (12) and a low-refractive-index layer (13) having a refractive index lower than the refractive index of the functional layer (12), wherein the surface (13A) of the low-refractive-index layer (13) is the surface (10A) of the transparent laminate (10), the surface (10A) of the transparent laminate (10) is not fogged as tested in an anti-fogging ability test, and the absolute value Y1 of a difference in the luminous reflectance Y of the surface (10A) of the transparent laminate (10) between before and after the anti-fogging ability test is 0.2% or less.

The present disclosure relates to a flame-retardant fabric that includes a modacrylic fiber and a cellulose fiber. The cellulose fiber is one or more selected from a regenerated cellulose fiber and a natural cellulose fiber. The flame-retardant fabric contains the modacrylic fiber in an amount of 65 to 90 wt % and the cellulose fiber in an amount of 10 to 35 wt % with respect to the overall weight of the fabric. The modacrylic fiber contains a magnesium compound inside the fiber. The flame-retardant fabric contains the magnesium compound in an amount of 2.5 to 4.5 wt %. Afterflame time and afterglow time of the flame-retardant fabric measured using a flammability test based on ISO 15025: 2000 are 2 seconds or less and 2 seconds or less, respectively.
